👍👍 Neptunes fountain is a beautiful fountain right outside of the library of Congress. The water was very blue and clean. It was interesting to see their depiction of Neptune in statue form and the surrounding architecture was well designed.

👍 I went last year (2021) and this year (2022) for the spring craft fair. It was open air and hot but nice. I would recommend going around midday (if you go for a craft fair) and bringing some cash and a lunch to eat there. For a regular visit, I would recommend the same but you don't need cash. You c...

👍👍 Man, this is the weirdest motel I’ve ever stayed at. I mean, I was walking around looking for some decent hooks, some tinsel and lingerie, and some guy he says, come check out our motel, we got charcuterie! I’m a meat merchant, haha, so I says, “hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah.” About 68 hours la...
